On being extremely tacky

Is it really necessary, in a press release commemorating the ultimate sacrifice made by hundreds of WWI soldiers, to boast about the price tag of the bronze plaques?
The Provincial Government invested $400,000 to fully fund the replication of the bronze plaques...
Honestly.

And while a whole raft opf people yesterday were busily thanking Danny and the news releases are deliberately unclear about whose idea it was, the credit actually belongs to former LG Edward Roberts.

How's that for doubly tacky?
